New Years

So I decided, New Years isn't my favorite holiday... its pretty lame actually... if you don't drink, and you don't have a significant other, its boring. I remember when we were little how much I loved it! Mom and Dad would go out, and we could have a friend over, and we would watch movies and eat candy and popcorn, and make decorations such as home made confetti, from ripped up construction paper, for midnight. We would get out the pots and pans, and set them up like a drum set, and when 12:00 rolled around we would bang on the pots and pans, scream HAPPY NEW YEAR at the top of our lungs and dance around!
Ahh, the bliss of innocence! Unfortunately, the art of a good dance party has been lost, so that option's out... all there is left is to go to dinner, then come back and watch a movie...
This New Years, I had no plans - not because of lack of trying mind you- I was home alone, and it was coming up on 10:30, so I had just sat down to put in the Bourne Identity and watch it (hahaha, man I am so lame)... when Alex called me to go hang out with him, Kristin and Matt. It ended up being a lot of fun... we went up to Centennial and watched the fireworks from the top of the press box! It was so fun!!!! It was FREEZING though!!! It brought back good memories of track and xc, and midnight madness!! :) The fireworks were pretty cool too, all of the casinos synchronize them, and they went for like 10-15 mins! (I think... I'm not the best estimator!!)
Then we hit up the Mitchell's house for breakfast then it was home for some sleep!!!
